In reply to 93EXCivic:

I hate you........and its quite awesome. Most of those around here were turned into beer cans long ago

Barring absolutely massive rust issues, it is coming home with one of us. The guy said the earliest we could see it was on Thursday.

Where do you get parts for these things?

In reply to 93EXCivic:

Find a donor prolly......or make them.

Oh hell yeah! Its different color shades are only matched by the different shades of Awesome!

Yep.

I'll see if I can find a picture of my buddy's Studdie rat tonight.

Is it thursday yet?

I haven't opened the link, but I noticed it's from Alabama. I say yes!! It seems there is nothing for sale (vehicle-wise) in Alabama that's not cool.

cue somebody proving me wrong....

Will it be able to tow my Saab when you buy it?

I don't know. 4.82 gears and 80hp might make a long journey.

love studes.
A teacher of mine was building a stude using mostly NASCAR parts, fabbed to fit, and some completely one off pieces. I think they all pretty much have to be one of a kind for the most part.

Seriously, I would positively buy that if I was you. That is awesome and pretty rare and a good price. You cant beat it. Good luck!!

Well it depends. Do you:

1) Have prior spousal approval? 2) Come up w/ a clear and concise plan for the direction of the project? 3) Calculated and re-checked a monetary budget, and scheduled time for the afore-mentioned project? 4) Contacted your HOA/local zoning commision for approval? 5) blah blah blah

Really......you need to buy this if possible. And do something cool w/ it. Summer's almost over....

wow... I WANT that.. good thing it is in alabama

Did you buy?

I don't want to wait that long.

Anything with a split window is cool. Think about it...

Further proof.

OOOOOOOOHHHHH

drools

Yes...definitely get it!

It's a studebaker. Nothing more to say....Studebaker can be made into the coolest rods. TG it's so far away.....But it's really close to my dad. haha

Initial assessment of language skills made me question the legitimacy of the ad. Then I realized he could spell "brakes" properly, so it must not be a scam...so go for it.

Is it Thursday yet?
